I'm not going to write a whole lot about the demo projects I've been working on and mostly let them speak for themselves. The place to find them is http://jorgensons.net/websvn The coolest demo in there so far that I've fully setup is the "DataUsage_RemoteObject" project. It's a (mostly) clean and simple example of how to model data from the data base to PHP to flex. The only thing I'm not proud of in there is the PHP updateUser function which takes a field name as a parameter. thus tightly coupling the Flex to the data base field name (and any changes that end up needing to be propogated) Currently the demo only performs loading a user and updating that valid user ID. I think that's enough for today. Eventually I'll log the time into my new time tracking tool, but I haven't setup a guest account for people to view that yet either so I'm not going to bother with it for now. Questions? Send me an email. Enjoy!

At about 10 am this morning, I switched the port direction from Vidar to Aineko, so roughly at that time Aineko went live. Translated, I set my router to point from my old server to the new! Not very exciting but it was a ton of work to get everything moved and triple checked that everything would work once the old one was shut down. I had problems with the oddest things, and of course it's always the things that you DONT expect to give you problems that do. For instance the job scheduler that updates my dynamic IP address shoulda been cake. Oh and the BitTorrent client I use!? What's the deal CentOS?? You can't seem to manage to package one up in the normal repository. Points lost on that. So far I give it a B+ for stability stuff and ease of setting up "normal" server stuff, such as getting a LAMP server going. It also definitely scores no more than a C- on all the other user friendly stuff that I'm used to. So that's what.. a B-/C+ over all? Feels about right. At least it's done! And the server IS much faster. Enjoy : ) |

For the last two days or so I've been trying to get my new server up and running so I can retire the old one. One of the things I've recently had to tackle is CentOS 5's complete LACK of native kernel support for NTFS. Here's some tips and tricks I had to pull along the way. The basic gist is that you need the NTFS-3G kernel driver and the FUSE driver (? not sure what it really is, assume it's a driver). Currently I'm running the 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5xen x86_64 SMP kernel, and couldn't find any rpm's to do the job, so I did it from source. Thankfully it all worked fine. Note: You will need your kernel headers somewhere, or installed. For CentOS, yum install kernel-devel kernel-xen-devel should do the trick
NTFS-3G driver http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#installation FUSE http://fuse.sourceforge.net/ Following the instructions on ./configure, make, make install and it worked fine. Fuse will need to be in place before NTFS-3G can work properly. After all that I was able to mount my USB external HDD's with NTFS file systems. Yay! As a side note, I got to test out Aineko's multi-CPUs and did a make -j 8 (spawn 8 processes) after I did the make and install and it was definitely severl times faster. Nice!
